    Used to be #1 on there for certain key words. I made some routine content changes that seemed to helped me on google but now I'm nowhere to be found on Bing. Badda bing...poof... disappeared.

    I just noticed it today and judging from my analytics it happened yesterday. I hope you're right. I may be jumping the gun bitching about it.

    Same thing happened to me, I was at #3 then a few days later I was nowhere. Before I got to #3 I noticed a few referrals in AWStats from a MSN HRS URL - which I think is a Human Review System. Whether this was really a human review of my site and whether the review got me to #3 or made me disappear I've no idea.

    Bing is updating, don't worry it is a temporary glitch. I also faced same, but was restored within a week.

    Bing dance??? That's a good one. I am not getting much traffic at all from Bing. lets see how Google's new update matches with Bing. For now I am planning on working on Google promotion. But there is an advantage if you work for Bing (Not sure how!!!). You get search traffic from BING and YAHOO... Now that's something

    Same happened to me in Bing, and all of my 'neighbors' for certain keywords. I'm interesting in seeing how this plays out.

    I had good position until recently. I added some content and made a change to my main page title... then got whacked. I fell to page two so that's not terrible but still, I shake my head wondering why.

    Yeah some of my neighbors got doinked as well. I won't go into the exact numbers but the amount of traffic I was getting from Bing was enough to care. My site and seo tactics were totally legit and white hat.
